which was so successfully done that
even the old capital and great city OF
Marking was taken by them. After the
lapse OF long centuries the features OF
these descendants of the conquerors are
easily distinguishable. They have an
almost perfect Grecian profile, with
high-bridged noses. low cheek bones,
and thin lips. These facial character
isticS are seen more markedly among
the pure blooded of the emperor's
nobility at kioto, the old capital They
characterize all the upper classes, with
few exceptions. The nobility, the men
lat arms, and the oldlanded proprietors
have these distinctive features. The
smaller farmers, the artisans and
mechanics, the merchants and bankers,
and the laborers have the features of the
conquered, or Kamchatkan race. These
latter have low foreheads, 4 bridgeless
fiat nose, high cheek bones. and thick
lips. In the lady and her maid, and
in the landowner and his laborers YOU
will see these two contrasting types. -=

Ducks In Underground Ponds.

Panther creek is a stream in north,
eastern Colorado. One of the sources
OF the creek is shallow, sedgy pond,
from which the water pours over a min,
lature precipice some ten feet IN height
and five or six in width The pond is
the resort in their season of a great
many wild ducks, who feed on the sedgy
plants growing on its margins and shall
low bottom. Last year neighboring
ranchman noticed that on disturbing 9
these water fowl, in place of flying of
to distance, they circled about for
few minutes and then dashed through
the veil of water formed by the falls
coming from the pond.
Though good deal astonished, the
ranchman had then no time for investi.
cation of the singular circumstance,
and not until short time ago did he
follow the tracks of the ducks through
falling waters. Beyond slight duck.
ing he experienced no inconvenience in
passing behind the falls Once there
and the way was clear. Opening before
him was passage three feet in width,
anG of sufficient height to allow a man
to pass upright The walls of the sub.
terranean way were dripping witL
water and undoubtedly passed directly
beneath the pond. He had not gone
many yards before the sound of great
9uacking fell upon his ears. fastening
bis pace, he soon came upon Il large
cavern, in the center of which was
lake. The surface of this lake was
thick with ducks. The water fowl was
mostly mallard and teal, though several
other varieties were represented.
On the approach of the intruder the
ducks arose in an immense cloud and
disappeared through an opening be.
yOnd the lake. Our adventurer followed
them, and found another and similar
lake, covered with wild ducks. Again
the fowl arose, and with frightened ana
clamorous quacks throDged through an
other passageway. Here the puE$Iel
found the largest lake of all, and she
end of the subterranean water chain.
The ducks now took the back track
and he could hear the rush of their
wings and the sound of their harsh
notes growing fainter as they sosght
the safety of the outer air. C5eyefSgs
